EN: to divide something into multiple pieces
This is the more deliberate, almost surgical, version of dividing. Think of your manager telling you to break down a huge task into smaller, manageable sub-tasks. "Okay team, let's paghati-hatiin this project into phases." It's less about sharing with people and more about breaking one thing into many parts.
pag- + hati (reduplicated) + -in (suffix indicating object focus)
Verb in the infinitive form. Often confused with 'paghati-hatian', but this focuses on the object being broken down, while the other focuses on the group receiving the shares.
🇵🇭 Kailangan mong paghati-hatiin ang buong manok para sa walong tao.
🇺🇸 You need to divide the whole chicken into pieces for eight people.
🇵🇭 Huwag mong paghati-hatiin ang iyong atensyon kung gusto mong matapos agad.
🇺🇸 Don't divide your attention if you want to finish quickly.
